A day before the top court is set to resume hearing into the Panama Papers case, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan said no foreign power could save the premier from accountability.

“I have heard they are seeking support from the UAE to save themselves from accountability,” Imran told his supporters at the party workers’ convention in Islamabad on Sunday evening. “But neither [Indian PM] Narendra Modi nor [US President] Donald Trump or the Qatari prince or any other country in the world can save Nawaz Sharif.”

The Joint Investigation Team (JIT) formed by the Supreme Court to probe Sharif family’s offshore assets concluded on July 10 that the PM and his family were in possession of assets beyond their known sources of income.
